Bigger Gas Tank?

[rcadden]

Has anyone installed a bigger gas tank on their JLU?

I'd like to go just a little bigger - 5-10gal is all, but wondering if anyone's done it?

Bigger than you asked for but here is an option. This is on a JT but there are Wrangler options.

Little pricey

Thanks. Looks like rotopack gerry cans would be significantly easier and cheaper.

i Have a LRA tank. Not sure what capacity is in old fashioned measurements but I now have 146 litres

That is so nice. I really wish there was an option for the 3.6 L with eTorque...

How is the eTorque different? Mine is an export 3.6 rubicon

Wonder why they don't make one for the diesel?

Pretty sure the wee tank is in the way

eToruqe has a large 48V battery pack under the rear right where this tank is usually mounted.

Just as a point of clarification, you "may" find a transfer tank, but you are not likely to find a larger replacement "gas" tank. "Gas" tanks are part of the emissions system, they are not for diesels. So, you can manufacture a tank for a diesel and don't have to pass the same EPA testing/certification. You'll see larger diesel tanks available all the time. It hasn't been cost effective for manufacturers to build, and more importantly certify, a larger "gas" tank. You will find auxiliary tanks that you have to transfer the fuel from and into your stock "gas" tank, but it's not really a larger "gas" tank in the traditional sense.

Ah for the old days when you just had to pull a tube out of the tank to get an extra 4 or 5 gallons....

Yes, this exactly. There doesn't seem to be an alternative space for a decent sized tank underneath the 3.6 L eTorque.

If you are still looking for a larger tank I just installed a Long Range America 17 gallon auxiliary fuel tank in my '21 JLUR.
